I hired G&M Painting to redo my entire 2BDR/2BATH apartment, and was not disappointed by the work. My requirements included four different wall colors and a dry-erase wall, and Grievin and his team delivered, on a tight schedule. Due to the time-constrain, there were some minor imperfections I've noticed; I reached out to Grievin who personally came and addressed them; I was thoroughly impressed. I would definitely hire G&M again in the future.

Jaime was punctual both when he came to estimate and when he returned to complete the job. He gave a reasonable quote and stuck to it, even after he was asked to do a few extra tasks.He expertly trimmed and secured a large area of 40Ft tall bamboo and then also did a spring cleanup, trimmed hedges and cleaned all of the debris away. Since he had to go through the house to get all of the material out he was very careful to clean his shoes each time he walked through and not to hit anything in the house, or doors, hallways or walls on his way out of the building. This care was greatly appreciated by this homeowner. I would not hestitate to use his services again.

Had a great experience with Chris and his crew replacing my fence. He provided information and quoted several fence options for me. Got the pressure-treated shadowbox fence to replace my old beat-up fence. Removal and installation of fence done in about a week. Highly recommened, provided very good info about pricing, lead time and concerns. Enjoying the new fence!

Took down eight 6-ft tall stockade fence panels, removed and placed leaning posts, and re-hung panels, for $500. Other companies either wanted $800 to $1,100 for the same work or were only willing to install a completely new fence for even more money.

Northeast Fence is an 11 - on a scale of 1-10. Luis gave me an estimate within 48 hours, gave me a great price, and knowing I was under the gun with timing put me into a cancellation slot within 3 days as opposed to 2-3 weeks (which was still quicker than his competition).
The work was flawless, and completed in a little over 5 hours.
The fence is a game changer for me. Soon as I posted new pics on FOR SALE BY OWNER, my phone was ringing off the hook.
I told Luis he can use me as a reference any time he wants. Pictures will tell the rest.
Don't look any further .....

Joseph and his team are fantastic! Amazing and fast work with incredibly helpful insight on building our first retail store! He also let us know how to get the most mileage out of our budget with no nonsense at all. It was a real pleasure working with Ariel Consultants, and we will for sure be working with them again in the future!

Project: Install a Wood Fence
I contacted 4 fencing cost for estimates. Jon contacted me promptly and set up a time to come by. We walked my property and I told him my idea. He pointed out a few things and I revised my plans according to his suggestions. The other two fencing companies (1 never responded) did not offer any suggestions and quoted on my original plan. Prices were comparable ($200 difference) but with Jon I felt comfortable knowing the project would done on time. work was scheduled within a day, Finished on time, fence looks great, dogs LOVE IT. Jon came by to make sure I was happy, I am! Thank you!

I had a big remodeling project throughout my house (2400 sqf). 2 weeks into the project the work was already pretty much completed, they always start with the most difficult work then finish up with the details. Overall they work very fast and do very good job.

Waldy did a great job on my total renovation, everything from floors to wall repair, kitchen cabinets, appliances, molding, electrical, plumbing, you name it. He maintains high standards and is very understanding, always working with a customer to make changes and achieve the desired result. Couldn't give a higher recommendation, have already and will continue to refer friends and family to him.

We had a new roof, gutters, a fence and some other small home maintenance work done.
The craftsmanship of all of the work, especially the roof, was superbly done. It's a colonial with particular edges which required hand made solutions to bring it back to its natural glory and that is exactly what was done.
We were clients and sometimes students, as time was taken to explain the process, materials being used, alternate solutions etc to ensure that we were comfortable with the job.
We would and we have recommended All Remodeling and Construction to others.

The work consisted of welding a new lock piece onto a broken gate; priming and painting a wrought iron fence and repairing broken cement. The work was professionally done in a timely manner. Luca was rehired to do additional outside wrought iron painting.
He is reliable, responsible and skilled.

I would like to highly recommend the general contractor who handled my townhouse’s third remodeling and renovation project, Mr. Mario Bissessar, owner and principal of City Line Interiors, Inc.
The job project went extremely smoothly and was completed in a highly professional, efficient manner; I am very pleased with both the process and the beautiful results. The project was multi-faceted, complicated -as any remodeling entails- including a lot of details, involving multiple building sectors such as plumbing, electrical, HVAC, windows, tiling and paintings, metal work, having to respect landmark rules and blending with the existing structure. The crew led by Mario was very cohesive, punctual, talented, productive, flexible and friendly. His team is fluent in English (with a variety of charming Caribbean accents). Mario is very responsive, an excellent communicator and a great team leader. He was there every day, not only overseeing the work but very much hands-on, with precious skills, including carpentry. Mario also contributed great design ideas and judicious trouble-shooting solutions. Of course, I made several last minute changes or additions, which inflated the original budget but the corresponding charges were well itemized, justified and very reasonable. The payment schedule was without surprises and always well timed. It does not hurt that Mario is also an IT wizard…. All his subcontractors (electricity, plumbing, HVAC and metal work) were fantastic: they delivered diligently on the promised dates. It makes a big difference when subcontractors are well coordinated; they obviously knew and respected each other well, and were happy to work with Mario Bissessar.

Greenwood Robinson did a complete makeover for our 20X50 backyard in Brooklyn, including fencing and tree removal and with no direct access. Sam was extremely creative and innovative throughout the entire process. He had a great team as well, that we enjoyed working with. They followed through on time commitments and communicated well regarding any changes required. We highly recommend Greenwood Robinson. You will not be disappointed.

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much is a redwood fence per foot?

A redwood fence is a long-lasting home investment that can add beauty and major curb appeal to your home. Redwood fence installation costs are higher than those for pressure-treated pine or cedar, due to the relative scarcity of the wood. Pricing can vary for redwood fence installation costs based on regional labor rates, current prices of redwood planks, the height and linear feet of the fence, and any custom designs or features. Redwood fences, in addition to being beautiful, are naturally more resistant against bugs and rot than less hardy or dense woods. Redwood fences also generally fare well in wet or humid climates due to their natural oils — which also make them easier to maintain. Materials costs per linear foot for redwood planks can range anywhere from $6 to $20 or more, depending on grade, quality and height.

How much does it cost to put up a chain-link fence?

Chain-link fence is one of the most affordable options for adding safety and value to your home or business. The national average chain-link fence installation cost is $2,750. Chain-link fences are relatively simple for the pros to install; a fence of less than 150 linear feet can often be put up in under one day. A good rule of thumb is to add an additional workday for each additional 100 linear feet of fence to be installed.

Chain-link fence installation costs are affected by the fluctuating cost of steel, regional labor rates, the height of fence you select, and the features you select, such as a powder-coated finish. The industry standard is galvanized steel, which is rust- and corrosion-resistant. Galvanized chain-link fence installation cost, including labor and materials, is typically $12 per linear foot. For a more contemporary and elegant option, black powder-coated galvanized chain-link fence might cost approximately $15 per linear foot on average, including materials and labor. For industrial sites or businesses, 10-foot-high galvanized chain-link fences may provide additional security, but also have an added cost. A 10-foot-high chain-link fence could cost $17-$18 per linear foot, including labor and materials.

How much does it cost to install a vinyl fence?

A new fence can mean added home value, increased curb appeal, and improved home security. The national average vinyl fence installation cost is $4,600. Vinyl fences have a number of appealing qualities such as their durability, their lasting good looks (they don’t weather like wood does), their versatility, and the fact that they require little to no maintenance such as staining. Fencing companies typically charge per linear foot for vinyl fence installation. They calculate their estimates based on materials to be used, height of fence, linear feet of the proposed fence, and the accessibility of the terrain. If the workers need to level the land before work begins, your vinyl fence installation costs will probably increase. Vinyl fences are typically more expensive than wood or chain-link. For example, one company might charge $19-$22 per linear foot for a basic 6-foot vinyl privacy fence. Another company might charge $25-$35 per linear foot for standard vinyl fencing, while decorative fencing with custom detail could increase that cost to $50 per linear foot. For a 6-foot-high white vinyl privacy fence with two walk-through gates (plus demolition and disposal of the old fence), the cost of the total project could run $8,000. A 4-foot-high, 36-linear-foot white picket vinyl fence with one gate could cost $2,600.

How much does it cost to install a wood fence?

Help define your property line, protect your home and yard, and boost your curb appeal with a new wood fence. The national average for wood fence installation cost is $3,250. Wood fence installation costs will vary based on your geographic location, the type of wood you select, the height and style of wood fence you desire, and the condition of your property. Pressure-treated pine is a common and attractive choice that is usually resilient against rot and bugs. Cedar is another budget-friendly option that, although more expensive than pressure-treated pine, can be more affordable than redwood or teak. A wood fence requires maintenance to ensure its long-term health and beauty, so keep future staining and painting costs in mind when you’re calculating fence installation costs. Here are some examples of how height and material affect the approximate cost of wood fences:

How much does it cost to install a fence gate?

Adding a gate to your fence can be a practical way to provide access to a yard, work area or outdoor living space while ensuring safety and privacy. Gate installation costs will vary based on the gate material you select, the size of your gate, whether you install a fence at the same time, and any special features you’d like to add. Standard opening size for a single-wide gate is 4 feet; a double-wide gate is 8 feet. A small gate may be for decoration; a double-wide gate can be mounted on a rolling caster system to allow access for cars or wide loads. Here are some examples of average fence gate installation costs:
